A capped barrel system includes a barrel for aging and a device for capping the barrel. The barrel includes a plurality of staves made of a wood suitable for aging liquids, a plurality of hoops for holding the staves together, a head having a flat circular top, a bunghole in the head, and a chime formed by raised ends of the staves. The device includes a lid sized to span across the head and beyond the chime, a flange extending downwardly from the lid for engaging an external side of the staves, an opening in the lid to generally align with the bunghole, and a closure sized to seal the opening.

The present disclosure provides a container with an increased movable range of an upper wall with respect to a side wall. According to the present disclosure provided is a container including a side wall, an upper hinge member, and an upper wall, wherein the upper hinge member and the side wall are connected rotatably around a first rotation axis, the upper hinge member and the upper wall are connected rotatably around a second rotation axis, and the first and second rotation axes are parallel.

A portable deployable container system has structural elements, including a base, a cover, and a set of panels, which can be manipulated into at least two container configurations. In one configuration, a container is formed by releasably securing the cover to the base to define a first volume. Some or all of the panels may be enclosed within such first volume, defining an undeployed configuration for the system. A second configuration involves removably securing some or all of the set of panels to the base and enclosing the panels with the cover, thereby deploying the system and forming a second, deployed configuration enclosing a volume larger than the first volume. Interconnections between the structural elements benefit from duckbill connections which add strength to the configurations by receiving flanges of first elements into corresponding channels of second elements formed by flared walls on such structural elements.

Systems and methods for providing compostable food containers which preserve the quality of a food product for an extended duration of time, and which optionally allow for cooking of the food product therein. In some implementations, the food containers are sturdy, stackable, insulating, and require minimal or no manual labor to assemble. In some implementations, the food container includes a base and a cover which cooperate to form a closed chamber for supporting, protecting, insulating and optionally cooking a food product, such as a pizza. The base and cover may each be formed of a single layer of material including, but not limited to, molded sugarcane fiber (bagasse), molded wood fiber, molded bamboo fiber, molded paper or plastic.

A foldable tote box enables a content thereof to be visually checked under a state in which a lid is closed. The foldable tote box includes a box body including: a square or rectangular bottom surface part; front and rear side wall parts and right and left side wall parts corresponding to respective sides; a lid extending from an upper edge of the rear side wall part; and a reinforcement plate configured to reinforce the bottom surface part. The reinforcement plate is pivotably mounted on a lower edge of the front side wall part or the rear side wall part. The right and left side wall parts are inwardly foldable when a center portion of the bottom surface part is pulled up. Each of the side wall parts is formed of a frame member, and a sheet material including a transparent portion is supported by the frame member.

A collapsible container comprising a base comprising a plurality of grooves located at a periphery of a top surface of said base; a first sleeve having a first set of three flat surfaces; wherein at least one first flat surface of said first set of three flat surfaces comprises an extension of said first flat surface adapted to be inserted in at least one groove of said plurality of grooves; a second sleeve having a second set of three flat surfaces; wherein at least one second flat surface of said second set of three flat surfaces comprises an extension of said second flat surface adapted to be inserted in at least one groove of said plurality of grooves; where when said first sleeve and said second sleeve are located in their respective grooves, they completely surround said base; where said plurality of grooves do not comprise a full-angled groove.

A stackable container, including a body and a cap threadingly engageable with a neck portion of the body and having a top portion formed with a depression for selectively oriented snap-registered engagement with a base portion of a counterpart of the body, the cap further including handle projections and a skirt. Opposite stop structures prevent rotation of the cap relative to the body beyond predetermined threaded engagement; a detent releasably captures the body in the predetermined threaded engagement. A base portion of the body having inclined side walls facilitates rotation of the body with respect to the cap. The skirt extends downwardly more than an axial length of the neck portion for guiding the body into alignment with the cap. A consumable product such as a cosmetic can extend into the cap from the body.

The present disclosure provides a battery box and a vehicle, the battery box comprises an upper box body, a lower box body, a connecting member, a fixing member. The upper box body comprises a first eave portion, the lower box body comprises a second eave portion. The first eave portion is provided with a first connecting hole, the second eave portion is provided with a second connecting hole and a mounting hole. The connecting member passes through the first connecting hole and the second connecting hole to connect the upper box body and the lower box body. The fixing member passes through the mounting hole to make the lower box body mounted to external equipment, compared with the conventional battery box, the lower box body is equivalent to the arrangement of eliminating the third eave portion, it simplifies the structure and reduces the weight, thereby improving the energy density.

The present disclosure provides a lower box body, a battery box and a vehicle, the lower box body comprises a base body, a first protecting assembly, a mounting hole. The base body comprises a bottom plate portion, a side plate portion, eave portions. The first protecting assembly is provided at outside of the base body, fixed to the base body and is attached to the eave portion. The mounting hole penetrates the eave portion and the first protecting assembly. The first protecting assembly improves the entirety structural strength of the lower box. Because the mounting hole is formed by penetrating the eave portion and the first protecting assembly, the structural stability of the mounting location of the lower box body is improved, thereby making the mounting location of the lower box body not be prone to be deformed or damaged when the battery box is subjected to the external force.

A stackable case includes a cooling and/or heating device, such as a Peltier element, so that the stackable case can be used as a cooler and/or warmer for storing beverages, food, etc. A power source device, in which a plurality of battery packs is housed, supplies power to the Peltier element and one or more fans. The power supply device has latches for detachably joining or linking it to the stackable case in a stacked manner.
